Multibiometrics based on palmprint and handgeometry

This paper described our approach of multibiometrics in a single image. Firstly, a new method for capturing the key points of hand geometry is proposed. Then, we described our new method of palmprint feature extracting. By using projection transform and wavelet transform, this method considered both the global feature and local detail of a palmprint texture and proposed a new kind of palmprint feature. We also proposed a twice segmentation method for handgeometry feature extraction. In the processing of feature matching, we analyzed the weakness of the traditional Euclidian square norm method, and introduced an improved method. The experimental results demonstrated the effectiveness and accuracy of these proposed method.
